Ayurvedic Treatment for AIDS or HIV Positive
By Shankar
AIDS or HIV Positive is a dreaded disease that so far is incurable although it can be treated. AIDS is the abbreviated form of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome. This is a disease that is referred to the defect of the body’s immune system. Syndrome means a group of diseases that cause destruction to a person’s body. AIDS is caused by the virus known as Human Deficiency Virus (HIV).
In Ayurveda, AIDS is associated with ‘Kshaya’ or ‘Ojakshaya’ which means weak or loss of strength. It is caused primarily by the Kapha dosha and also other doshas that result in causing several other diseases.
The symptoms of a person suffering from AIDS are tiredness, fatigue, continuous fever, insomnia, skin problems, loss of appetite, drastic weight loss, digestive disorders and becoming prone to various allergies.
AIDS is a Sexually Transmitted Disease (STD). Person having unprotected sex are prone to get this disease. It can also spread through blood transfusions. HIV cannot be transmitted by touching, through saliva or fluid from the nose. However, people having unprotected intercourse and sharing syringes are at high risk in getting AIDS disease.
Ayurveda therapy is given to the person to treat AIDS. There are several natural plants having antiviral properties that are useful in strengthening the immune system of the body. These plants do not cure AIDS in a day or two. However, regular intake of these plants for long periods of time can show improvement in the treatment of this disease. Plants that are rejuvenators and the ones that have antiviral properties are helpful in treating AIDS disease.
Holy basil: This plant is a good immune booster. Regular intake of one teaspoon of juice extracted from its tender leaves is very beneficial in treating AIDS. This should be taken in the morning on empty stomach. This is a good natural remedy to strengthen the respiratory tract problems that are affected by the virus.
Ashwagandha: This plant is a good immunity booster. It is used as a rejuvenator and strengthens the body. Regular intake of this plant helps in slowing down the process of AIDS disease.
